injustice" A bill incorporating
the Delta portion of Holmes
should be introduced and urged
early in the next session. That
such action was not had in the

AS the time approaches for the annual
municipal election there is manifested q
growing purpose to secure the city from
the disastrous rule of ignorance and ex-
trayagance which has throttled enter
prise and brought public finances to the
lowest condition. 1t is well enough to
speak plainly upon this subject. 1t is
conceded that the Intelligence and busi-
ness thrift of the community is repre-
sented by minority in administrative
circles and that ignorance and inefticien
oy and consequent mismanagement is
the prevailing force. In proof OF
this we need only to point to an exhaust.
ed treasury, to the long list OF pupose-
less expenditures and to public enter
prises buried beneath prejudice
which would be incomprehensible but
for the ever apparent motive. Calm re-
Election over prevailing causes has pro-
duoed an awakening and the business
man and the property owner recognizes
the situation and resolves to interfere in
behalf of himself, his property and
his future. In this purpose there is nc
politics visible as governing motive
and the abstract questions of the hour
are set aside. 1t is purely question
OF self preservation and carried to It'll
legitimate sequence it will eventuate il
o crisis which viii purge the body
politic of existing evils.

Journals which represent the Oongre-
gationalism OF the nation are giving
attention to the differences OF the church
and college at Yankton and commenting
thereon. The last issue Of the Andover
Review contains this:
y In striking contrast
with the course we have suggested
above, and which some churches have
fopted, is the advice given by an IN
huential Journal with regerd to west
ern college. Information has been re-
ceived that four out of eleven members
of the board of trustees and one of the
professors Of Yankton college, Dakota
have resigned because the other trustees
the president of the college, and another
pEofssss. are n sympathy with Andoyer
views. The excellent reason given for
resignlng is that the college will be more
likely to prosper. If theological con.
troyersies are avoided. The 'Oongrega-
One is, that ''three of these retiring
trustees have been identified with the
college from its inception, and all oi
them are christian gentlemen, whose
Judgment is deserving OF pro-
found respect" It is to bt
inferred that the seven remaining
trustees are not christian gentlemen
and the their Judgment is not equally
entitled to profound respect? The Other
comment, which seems to be uncallei
| for, at least till the other side is heard
from, is as follows: " Benevolent Con.

the balance cf their lives. The business
men to whom such applications are
made are unable to satisfy the demand
and the renters usually move on to some
other locality and their presence and
labors are lost to this locality This oc-
ours while there are miles and miles of
unoccupied aud unutilized prairie with
in sight from the limits of the city. The
owners of this yaraat land would lease it
If they could and could lease it if it was
under the suhieot.on of the pillow. 1t is
common and truthful remark that the
largest area OF unocoupied and un-
titled land in Yankton county
lies within radius OF five or ten miles
of the city. This is SO because specula-
tors (mostly eastern residents) have phr-
chased land nearest the city and are
permitting it to lie idle against the day
when it will yield them a handsome re-
turn upon Investments made. Its
owners can afford to wait until the
enterprise OF others has added to their
WSAlbu duu tuAs stuOy ni0 GoiupioOo0py
doing.
An excellent suggestion has been
made relative to the utilization OF this
unoccupied prairie. This suggestion is
that an association be organized for
leasing farms to those who will work
them. The business Of such an sssocia-
tion would be to secure control OF the
wild lands of speculators and break and
prepare such lands for farming opera
tlons. They could then lease them foH
o limited period to those who will till
them. While there might not be much
in the way of immeiiate profit in the
business, it could readily be, made to
pay its own expenses. And the prof
would come to the city and to th,
county at large in the general oultiva
tion of the idle acres of Yankton county
and in placing a family on nearly every
quarter section. An enterprise OF thi
nature would be an enterprise for gen
eral public good. 1t would help oil
classes of business and increase thu
value of rural and city real estate. 1t i
generally admitted that Yankton is Il

One OF the certain indications OF an
awakening in the department OF local
enterprise is the oft expressed desire Of
monied men and real estate holders to
give of their substance in behalf of in
ternal improvements and the procure
ment. OF new business institutions.
OfferE are freely made Of fifty, forty,
twenty and ten acre tracts and Of numer-
GUS lots and blocks, and to these is
added generally expressed willingness
to accept and pay an assessment OF Eve
or ten per cent in behalf of those things
which will aid in the development OF our
city. These are bona fide offers
and re could name the
parties if necessary. This is She
spirit which wins and il put in practical
operation will have an effect almost
magical upon our future. We stand
just now at the doorway Of grand
achievements and we need only to grasp
the situation lnteliigently and move
forward with unity, pntting behind us
ell the differences Of the past and work
ing to a common purpose, to real,ze The
most substantial results. M
It happens with Yankton, as with oil
other other communities, that it is ths
architect of its own future. Asst plan
and executes so will it build. 1t may b.
that few men must bear the burden 0
the effort, and il that be the case il re
mains only for the few to bend NOR
vigorously to the work. Opportunit,
comes to those who seek it and in on
case it iB now within reach and can b
secured for the taking. These are ran
! dom suggestions. but they hean mucl
more than we care to put upon paper q
, this time. The public spirited men 9

tion and they are ready to do their dut
